Dig the song (might drag on for a bit longer than needed).
Only technical issue is there's a touch of sibilance on the vocals, sharpness on those S's etc. I also typically have more kick presence but that's a mixing preference thing.
you know, i TRIED to tame that sibilence....
and found out, that the freq's that needed taming, were the same freq's i wanted to hear to get the clarity on the voice!
OOPS
a tracking error..
as it is, i placed a comp, and a deesser, across the vox buss, and it helped (you should hear it without it.....)
but of course, i'm draggin a lot of my "ssss's...." out on purpose, as a means to focus certain words,
and in those instances, i just can't de-ess enough without killing the clarity,
so i found a happy medium.
as far as the backing tracks, meaning, everything except the guitars and vox,
these drums and bass tracks (along with the assortment of odd instruments) are from a 320kbps MP3 file i had from a earlier collab,
i converted the mp3 to wav and ran with it.... could not get the original tracks....
and i had to use the mix as it was.....
i tweaked the hell out of it to get it where it is,
that's about as far as i could milk it.
i could do an entire post on JUST what i had to do to work with a 'demo' backing track from an mp3 file.
LOL
thanks again for listening...
